I know, I know it has been way too long but I got sick then I was without my laptop for a number of days then I got sick again so I apologise. Anyhow enough excuses…

Kensi is about 6 ½ months along

At 6 ½ months nearly 7 months Kensi felt huge, everywhere she went people gave her a wide birth and their eyes were glued permanently to her stomach. She couldn't even escape it at work, all the help staff that didn't really know her and only saw her as bad-ass Blye who didn't show any emotions, stared at her. It was driving her insane, Deeks definitely didn't understand, he also was staring at her but for a completely different reason, of course, I mean it is his son after all. Not only did it annoy her that people stared but the fact that she was always getting up to pee every 5 seconds, or what felt like every 5 seconds. And don't even mention the fact that it was getting increasingly harder for her to fall to sleep at night. With her baby boy growing in size it was getting harder to fall asleep on her side, which was her normal way. So with her awake at all odd times throughout the night all there was to do was think. Thinking, which just started out as what boxes she should pack next or what furniture to buy, somehow always ended up on the topic of food. And once she starts thinking about food she can't stop. It's inevitable. And it sucks. But it's all worth it in the end.

"Deeks … Deeks … wake up!" Kensi urged as she tried to shake him awake from his deep slumber. It was 2 in the morning but she didn't care, she was starving, and tonight's was a particularly weird craving, dumplings and chocolate.

"Whattimeisit?" Deeks mumbled as he stirred and rolled over looking directly into the eyes of an expectant looking Kensi. "What's up?" he inquired, slightly more awake than a few seconds before.

"I'm hungry" she replied smiling down at him

"But it's like 2 in the morning babe, can't you wait like 4 more hours till breakfast?"

"But your son is hungry, are you going to deny him some food?" She pouted shooting him her best puppy dog eyes which always seemed to work.

"Urgh fine, what do you two feel like eating?" He relented with his eyebrows raised

"Dumplings and chocolate" she immediately replied a smug grin of satisfaction plastered across her face.

"Seriously? Not even something that is in the apartment?" Deeks whined as he rolled out of bed and pulled on pants.

"Hey, what my baby wants, my baby gets" she exclaimed

"And it's reciprocated, whatever my princess wants, my princess gets" the young detective added with a smile before heading out of the bedroom and grabbing his keys. Of course she wanted something that he had to go outside at this time of morning for. This was starting to become a nightly occurrence, not only the getting up at random times of the night to get her food but also DRIVING to get her some weird food combination. He left the apartment mumbling nonsense the entire time.

It was just after 3am by the time he arrived back to the apartment to find Kensi sitting in the exact same position as he left her except that this time she was asleep, her head tilted to the side slightly with her mouth open and soft little snores escaping every few breaths. He went over to the bed, pulled off his pants and lifted the covers snuggling back under the warm blankets forgetting entirely about the food he just got. Just as he was getting back to sleep a groan sounded from next to him. Awesome.

"Mmmmmm Deeks did you get my food?" Kensi asked eagerly awakening quickly

"I sure did" he responded reaching onto the chair near the bed and grabbing the bag containing the copious amounts of chocolate and the dumplings from her favourite all night takeaway place "here baby, everything you so desired."

"Thank you baby, I love you" Kensi replied before devouring her food.

"Deeks you look like absolute crap" Sam mocked in greeting the next morning as the agent and detective walked hand in hand into the bullpen. "Rough night?"

"Gee thanks big guy" Deeks retorted his tone dripping in sarcasm "and because you asked so nicely, someone got hungry last night"

"Who your son or your fiancé?" Callen countered sending a look in Kensi's direction.

"Careful Callen, just because I am pregnant it doesn't mean that I couldn't kick your ass" Kensi interjected placing her bag on the floor and situating herself at the desk glaring at the senior agent next to her.

"Have you not learned yet Callen? Never piss off a hormonal pregnant woman. I thought you would have learnt over the last few months." Sam pointed out laughing at Callen's expression at the same time Deeks mumbled something along the lines of 'that's my girl.'

"Well now that we have established that Ms Blye is capable of kicking ass and that Mr Callen has learnt nothing, I suggest you all get to work, there is plenty of paperwork that you ALL could be doing." Hetty announced joining the four, eliciting groans from Kensi, Sam and Deeks and a dirty look from Callen. "Now, now Mr Callen, you'll get there eventually. Don't you fret." She added with a smile before wandering away from the bullpen.

Snickers and bickering could be heard across the entire bullpen throughout the uneventful day. And after being stuck in a sitting position all day, except for the frequent bathroom trips, Kensi could not be happier when the clock reached 5 o'clock. The second it struck she was up out of her chair, bag in hand, patiently waiting as Deeks did the same and they were out the door. Shouting goodbye's to the team.

I know it's a short chapter but I just needed to re-establish what was happening, that and it is more of a bridging chapter for the next one. Next chapter will be the move. Please review
